Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe
About the Game
With the simultaneous defeat of Darkseid and Shao Kahn in their respective universes, a freak portal accident has created a new, more evil and powerful entity that embodies the worst of both worlds: Dark Kahn. Dark Kahn seeks to merge the DC universe and Mortal Kombat universe into one reality, forcing heroes and villains alike to form unlikely alliances in order to keep their realities separate before they are consumed by "The Rage", a force that causes an individual to lose their minds and be consumed by their aggression.
Gameplay & Core Systems
In this arcade-style fighting game, both DC and Mortal Kombat universes are represented by 10 champions each, and one "boss" character, for a total of 22 fighters. Play is similar to the 2D Mortal Kombat games (with some 3D elements), focusing more on the special move aspect than the complex combos found in the previous three games ( Deadly Alliance , Deception and Armageddon ). In addition, gameplay features brand new fighting modes (Klose Kombat, Freefall Kombat, and "Test Your Might"), which use the environment as a mini-game style scenario to inflict stylized and extensive damage on an opponent, as well as "Rage", which turns standard moves into a devastating opportunity to crush your opponent. Players battle through such locales as Gotham City, Metropolis, the Shaolin Temples, or Earthrealm's Hell. Online play is also available for players to take their fights online for ranked matches, play against a friend, or another online opponent in tournaments.
